We’re Smart Tan Trained and Certified!

We are a proud member of the International Smart Tan Network, an association of professional tanning salon facilities. As a member of the organization, we recognize and practice specific principals and procedures in the responsible administration of UV light for cosmetic purposes.

Our employees are formally and comprehensively trained to understand and follow exposure schedules, focus on the need for all clients to wear approved eye wear, and teach clients to avoid sunburn and overexposure, both indoors and outdoors. Adherence to proper cleaning and sanitation protocol is maintained, and Health Canada regulations are emphasized.

Smart Tan creates and publishes educational materials for both tanning operators and clients alike, available to member and non-member tanning salons. The latest research being carried out regarding UV light is interpreted and communicated to Smart Tan salons as part of the ongoing educational program.

“The owners and operators of this Smart Tan member salon can assist tanners in developing a smart skin regimen,” said Joseph A. Levy, vice president of communications and development for the association. “Moderation and sunburn prevention are the two major tenets of smart tanning. That’s what the professional tanning industry is teaching its clients today.”

The International Smart Tan Network was founded in 1992 to promote the concepts of moderation and sunburn prevention through tanning facilities worldwide.

The Smart Tan creed:

Moderate indoor tanning, for individuals who can develop a tan, is the smartest way to maximize the potential benefits and minimize the potential risks associated with either too much or too little sunlight.
